When I first checked into this album, I was pretty sure that TERRORDOME is a band from Brazil. This angry bastard of Thrash Metal and old fashioned Crossover reminded me of Brazil’s own RATOS DE PORÃO in an instant. And this is more than a compliment, since I was absolutely blown away by the pure […]
The so-called Age of Aquarius refers to an astrological age and is often used within an esoteric context. As Wikipedia informs, in 1967 a wider audience was introduced to this concept by the musical “Hair”, accordingly the music festival commonly known as Woodstock was billed as “An Aquarian Exposition”. And now, PHALANX INFERNO from the […]
Dark Black / Death Metal with a doomy feel to it, is what is blasting from the speakers, when the album “Poison Of Being” from this Polish trio, is being played. The band was founded in 2017, and after a demo and a couple of EPs, they are now ready with their first full-length album […]
Godz Ov War Productions has announced the resumption of “Inperdition”, the first studio LP of the now defunct DAMNABLE. DAMNABLE was established in 1992 in Przysucha. The group consisted of Yehowy on vocals, Melon on drums, Andy on guitar and Clans on bass. The latter soon switched to guitar, which resulted in the addition of […]
My brother wears his KOMMANDO BAPHOMET t-shirt proudly, which I gave him along with their first album “Blood Gospels Of Satanic Inquisition”. Both he and I were immediately drawn to their primitive, War Metal rhythm and phantasmagoric vocals. Less than a year later, “Under The Deathsign” was released. There’s not much better than a band […]
“The Thule Grimoires” is the 6th full-length of THE RUINS OF BEVERAST. After 2 phenomenal splits last year, the new release on Ván Records perhaps provides the best avatar of THE RUINS OF BEVERAST as we know. The atmosphere on the entire album is incredibly intense, it drowns you in it entirely. The album opens […]
The year starts off with a split by these two, quite new entities. FULLMÅNE, a Norwegian one man band, and MARTELGANG from the Netherlands, and yet one of these secret bands that disclose the members. Both bands are kicking Black Metal in our face, showing two quite different approaches to the genre. One delivers a […]
We had “Ultratumba” released back in 2006, a compilation of most, if not all 7″es and extra material MACHETAZO released between 1998 and 2004 put out by Living Dead Society. MACHETAZO, the Spanish gods of Grindcore, Death Metal and all in between, a band with many releases, releases that are all quite hard to get […]
This is the debut album of this young Mexican Black / Death Metal horde, and what a fantastic release we have. Formed back in 2011, and after releasing a demo and an EP, they have developed their sound from cavernous Black Metal, to this intense, extreme and blasphemous Metal that takes the best elements of […]
Imagine to be in a land where freedom is just another word. Where every move you do, every action you achieve might be under the watchful eye of the authority. And that authority is still set in a mind where death is the answer to almost every little thing that will bother them. And I […]
